Companionship is provided for 4 hours one day a week. We are entirely satisfied with the service and level of care provided.
Thank you for your response it is lovely to read you are entirely satisfied the service you receive.
My sister is very comfortable and satisfied with the service.
My husband has been poorly since the beginning of 2021, so his ongoing care has been more of a challenge to me. Without the kindness and support of his carer our lives would have been greatly impaired. I cannot speak highly enough for the caring support that has been provided by his regular carer. She has allowed me a little respite through this difficult time. I am extremely grateful for her daily visits which gives me comfort that my husband is continuing to receive great care. Thank you!
Thank you so much for your kind words it is wonderful to hear we make a difference. I will pass your comments on to the CAREGiver in question and all other staff.
I have found my experience of the agency very good indeed over the past 11 months. The three days per week which I need her help for she keeps my house clean and tidy, she helps me have a shower and gets me dressed, we go shopping once in the week. She will help out when I get into difficulties on the computer. We have discussions and laughs about things. I especially like the fact that if my regular caregiver is away the agency will send someone else. Also, I am very pleased that my caregiver just kept working through the Covid crisis.
Thank you for taking time to complete the review your lovely comments are appreciated and will be passed on to the CAREGiver in question.
We have had an excellent experience with Home Instead caring for my mum. The service they provide is first class. Mum has a principal carer who looks after her so well and has become an important part of her life. The other carers, who look after her on the staff members days off, are all very good too. Mum trusts them to provide the personal care she needs. And they are exceptional in being prepared to cook her meals from scratch. They always arrive on time and are a key part of her daily routine.
Thank you it is so rewarding to hear how happy you are with the care mum is receiving. I will pass your lovely comments on to mum's CAREGivers.
Any potential new carer is always introduced to her alongside her known carer before they come. The ladies treat mum with total respect and brighten up her day. They do basic personal care and light housework.
I am very happy to leave mum knowing they are coming in. The office staff are very helpful if any changes need to be made and are supportive of family.
The new app is working very well and I can access it when I am away from home to check mum is ok. I would and have recommended them to anyone needing a carer to allow their family member to carry on living independently.
Thank you so much for your kind words, I will pass these on to mum's CAREGivers.
We are very satisfied.
Thank you for your kind words it is always good to hear how happy clients/family members are happy with the service we provide.
A thorough review carried out in a professional manner.
The service provided is excellent, of a high professional and caring standard. The carer is extremely helpful, thoughtfully and caring, she goes beyond expectations. Provides me with confidence that my parents are receiving care from a carer who has their best interests at heart. She has built up a very good relationship with my mother, who is the client and had Alzheimer's, and my father, who really likes and appreciates her.
Thank you so much for your kind words they are greatly appreciated. I will pass your comments on to the CAREGiver in question.
We would recommend them highly.
Very good service. Efficient, caring, friendly, all carers.
Thank you for your kind words, we appreciate your comment.
Home Instead Basildon has provided help, care and support for my grandfather over the last year. Cannot thank them enough for the work that they do for us and how they help my grandfather.
The carer was thorough, efficient and understanding of my mother's needs. As in the previous year, this year was the same and she covered all aspects of my mother's care plan and requirements.
She has Alzheimer's and is profoundly deaf. It is a testament to the care provided that she is still living in her own property safe and happy.
Thank you for your kind comments.
The Home Instead carers have been looking after my parents for the last few years. I don't know what we would have done without them. My parents have always been independent, but the carers have been brilliant. They are patient and kind and will help with anything they can. They will contact us if they have any concerns. They have shown great kindness towards both my parents and genuinely care for them. I would not hesitate to recommend Home Instead, they go beyond the call of duty.
Thank you for your kind review and we are delighted you are happy with the support provided by our team.
Home Instead Senior Care has supplied care for my father since January 2018, the care they supply is of a very high standard they are totally reliable. My father has Alzheimer's and the caregivers my father has are well trained with Alzheimer's so can meet the challenge this disease can create in a very supportive way. They also keep me informed and up to date not only are the caregivers outstanding the office staff also go out of their way to support me and my father. I call them my angels as they have made my life easier during a very difficult time. I would fully recommend them to anyone who is looking for care for their
Thank you so much for your kind words, they will be passed on to all concerned.
The service provided has always been of a high standard. All the staff are very caring and reliable.
Thank you for your kind words.
I have used this service before for my wife and they were first class. Now I have to use the service myself and I can only give a first-class recommendation. The carers are all well trained, very willing to help and ensure all safety precautions. They are all very cheerful and courteous. I have no hesitation in recommending their services.
Your lovely comments are much appreciated and will be passed on to all concerned.

I am completing my level 5 Diploma in Leadership for Health and Social Care.
I went into care after caring for my grandfather. It was then that I realised the importance of providing care and support to enable people to stay in their own homes.
I truly believe in the ethos of Home Instead to 'Change the Face of Ageing' providing a truly individualised and holistic approach to allowing people to stay in their own homes where they feel happy and safe.
My name is Debbie and I am one of the owners of Home Instead Basildon. My background is in nursing, having worked for over 35 years in the NHS, specialising in the care of people with cancer.
It is very important to me to ensure that care, whether hospital or in your own home, is of the highest possible standard, person-centred and is given with dignity and respect.
Home Instead represents all of the above and more with the addition of highly trained CAREGivers and exceptional key workers - Home Instead really does 'Change the face of ageing'
